# Tickify > Tickify is a ticketing platform built for independent event organisers. It is free to use for organisers: a 5% booking fee is added to the ticket price at checkout and paid by the buyer, so organisers keep 100% of face value. Organisers also retain full access to their attendee data and earn a royalty when their tickets resell on the secondary market. Tickify is built for independent promoters, organisers and venue operators running events of 200 to 10,000 people: music events, festivals, comedy nights, club nights, sports, and cultural events. It was founded by Phil and Crawford, who ran events before building the platform. The core problem Tickify solves: on Eventbrite, Humanitix, and DICE, your attendee data stays with the platform, so you can't fully access or take it with you when you leave. Fee structures are complex or opaque. And when your tickets resell on the secondary market at a premium, that money goes to scalpers, not to you. Tickify is built around the opposite model: your data is always exportable, fees are a single transparent 5% added to the buyer's price, and you earn a royalty on every resale. ## Key pages - Homepage: https://tickify.io - Pricing: https://tickify.io/pricing - Buy Tickets: https://events.tickify.io - Book a call: https://calendly.com/d/cxrm-9fb-k36/tickify-intro-call ## Free tools for event organisers Tools are hosted on tools.tickify.io. tickify.io/tools/* permanently redirects there (see next.config.ts). - Ticketing Fee Calculator: https://tickify.io/tools/fees - Fee Audit Playbook: https://tickify.io/tools/audit - Revenue Maximisation Guide: https://tickify.io/tools/sellout - Event Budget Planner: https://tickify.io/tools/budget - Sponsorship Pitch Pack (includes post-event report template): https://tickify.io/tools/sponsor - Platform Switch Guide: https://tickify.io/tools/switch - 8-Week Marketing Timeline: https://tickify.io/tools/timeline - Industry Contacts Directory: https://tickify.io/tools/contacts ## Platform comparisons Long-form comparison pages live on the main marketing site (not under /tools). - Tickify vs Eventbrite: https://tickify.io/compare/eventbrite - Tickify vs Humanitix: https://tickify.io/compare/humanitix - AU Platform Fee Guide 2026: https://tickify.io/compare/fees ## What makes Tickify different - Free for organisers: 5% booking fee is paid by the ticket buyer, not deducted from organiser revenue - Full data access: organisers export their full attendee list at any time and retain that access even after leaving the platform - Secondary market royalty: organisers earn up to 5% on resales at or above face value (coming soon).
